Default TaPpet Noise
Has anyone had a "tick Tick Tick" noise from the engine compartment rolling at between 14 and 20 MPH? I think it might be the tappets but not sure at this point. Otherwise, it is a truly magic carpet ride.

What year, engine cold? Warm? Does it get faster or slower with speed?

What BMW are you speaking of? Truly a defect riddled ride.

Nalod, IF you can see I have a 2021 LS500, not a BMW.

Tell it to the man who asked you about the BMW.

Default No Noise
49,000 miles and mine is quiet.
Only noise I have is that fake engine noise that is transmitted into the cabin at full chat when in sport mode. Wish I could turn that nonsense off.

Does the 2021 IS have active noise cancellation?
